USER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER
protective clothing, boots and gloves. It is understood that driv-
ing while impaired or intoxicated presents a danger for the UTV
user and others and is against the law.
The System consists of many moving parts, including transmis-
sion wheels. If an object lodges itself or becomes jammed into
the System and blocks the track, it is mandatory to stop the
engine and the vehicle and apply the security brake before
removing said object. By avoiding to do so, the user exposes
himself to sudden movement of the UTV or to breakage of a
part or component coming from the System, which could cause
severe injuries. It is also very important to wear full length cloth-
ing and always avoid hanging or stringy accessories.
Driving an UTV equipped with such a System requires particu-
lar precautions and a knowledge of proper driving techniques of
such vehicles. An evaluation by the user of the conditions and
terrain (state of the ground, grade of hill, density of snow, etc.)
is equally essential. An UTV equipped with a System cannot
compete and/or be used to perform stunts, acrobatics or other
exploits, as these could result in loss of control or severe inju-
ries.
Insufficient knowledge of an UTV during down hill riding, climbs
and crossing of obstacles and turns can result in tipping or roll
over, and can cause severe injuries.
Carrying a passenger, a load or attaching a tow can cause the
UTV to be less stable, and affect drivability. Unless otherwise
prescribed by law and by the UTV manufacturer, you must not
carry a passenger, loads or tow any objects.
The installation of a System:
• Increases ground clearance.
• Raises the center of gravity.
• Increases the UTV width and weight.
• Reduces ground pressure (psi (kgf/ m²)).
These parameters will effectively change driving characteristics
of an UTV equipped with the System.
Consequentially, it is highly recommended that the user adapts
his driving style in function of the new characteristics mentioned
above. The driver must always use caution when he crosses
obstacles, circulates through narrow paths, meets vehicles
coming in the opposing direction, etc.
As it was designed, the System will considerably reduce the
UTV top speed and can falsify the speedometer. Generally, the
System transmission wheel diameter is less than that of the
tire. Therefore, the vehicle speed will be less than that actually
